Abstract
The proposed operation and maintenance work rules contained in the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) Section 1910.269 proposal are discussed. A summary of the comments on these work rules for the American Public Power Association (APPA) (comments dated 6/1/89 and 9/29/89) and the Edison Electric Institute (EEI) (comments dated 8/1/90, 2/1/91, and 3/15/91) is provided. The impact of the rules on the electric utility industry is assessed. The scope of this study is limited to those portions of the rules which cover transmission and distribution facilities. It mentions but does not discuss the portions affecting power generation facilities
